Chapter Text
“Dear Diary, I fell in love...”
It is 3 a.m. and Shinsou is still awake, playing some video games. A part of him wishes that he could play with someone else, the other part of him knows that nobody likes him. He understands that his fathers told him to try and rest a bit because tomorrow is a big day. He would be accepted into class 2-A. But if he is completely honest, he is anxious. He would be taking the place of another student and 2-A would hate him for that. Also, they are going to think that I brainwashed someone to transfer me into the hero course.
Shinsou can feel his breath quicken, he hears his heartbeat in his ears, he starts to shake and he probably screamed something because his papa, Present Mic, ran in with his father, Eraserhead, right behind him.
“Hey, Hitoshi! Remember your breathing exercises, do them with me okay?” Hizashi says while not letting go of his son. Shouta stood there and watched as his husband calmed their son.
Shouta knows that his son has severe insomnia and anxiety. He hopes that class 2-A can help him as they help each other out. But first, he needs to come up with a plan to kick Mineta out.
Shinsou was calm now, well as calm as he could be because, in less than five hours, he would be in the hero course. Aizawa looks at him with a serious gaze. “Hey Hitoshi, wanna kick Mineta out of the hero course with me?” Shinsou heartily replied with “Oh hell yes, can I also literally kick him?” "Shinsou, no” Hizashi says, even though he seriously wants to kick Mineta himself.
It's 7 a.m. Shinsou wakes up and walks to the mirror. “Damn, those eye bags are something else...” Shinsou hates his face, he isn’t attractive, and he has a shit quirk. The quirk has nothing to do with his face, but he still hates it. He looks at himself for a few more minutes, naming all the things he hated about himself.
Shinsou gets ready for school. This time not in the general studies, but the hero course! He only got 2 hours of sleep last night, so he makes himself a double espresso. While he waits for the coffee machine to finish, Aizawa walks in “Good morning Hitoshi, are you ready for class 2-A?” he asks. Shinsou tenses a bit and then he replies: “Well from your stories you can never be ready for that class.” Aizawa let out a little chuckle “There you have a point son. Drink your coffee and then… We’re going to kick Mineta out.”
Shinsou smiles and happily says. “My pleasure”
While Shinsou walks through the front door he can hear Hizashi scream “Still no literal kicking Hitoshi” Shinsou wishes that he could promise that...
Aizawa and Shinsou are the last two to arrive at the classroom, “Shinsou, first try not to mention that I am your dad and second wait here while I kick that brat out.” Shinsou nodded “Yes Sensei.”
Aizawa wants to go inside but he hears Bakugo yelling something so he decides to wait before he enters the classroom.
10 minutes earlier
People started sitting down in their seats, some are still chatting about their vacation. They got 2 weeks off after their finals, which they all passed.
Kirishima walks through the door and stops at Kaminari’s table “Bro I have had the best vacation ever” Kirishima says with the widest grin Kaminari has ever seen.
“You confessed to Bakugou didn’t you”
“How did yo-”
“Bro have you looked at that smile you have, anyone could have guessed.”
Bakugou walks into the classroom, slightly less irritated than normally and Kaminari knows exactly what the reason for that is. The reason stands right in front of him.
“Oi Dunce Face what are you looking at.” Bakugou lets out while looking just as irritated and inflammable as he normally was.
“Nothing Bakubro, just happy for you,” Kaminari says without giving it a second thought what he just said to Bakugou.
Then realization kicked in “fuck, I said that out loud didn’t I”
“Yeah Bro and now we both need to fear for our lives” Kirishima almost whispered to him. Both boys glance at Bakugou because both boys were seriously scared.
Bakugou sees that the boys are waiting for fallout or an angry scream. Which surprisingly didn’t occur. “Shitty hair I am not mad that you told dunce face about us dating, I have nothing to be ashamed of.”
“You… You are not?” He says as if a great burden fell off his shoulders, the boy physically relaxed. Until…
“WHAT Kirishima you are gay?!” Mineta screamed in disbelieve.
Kirishima tenses up again and fiddles with his hands“ oh yea-”
“Unbelievable from Bakugou I would have expected it, with his ‘Mineta stop with harassing the girls’ I am not harassing anyone I just… admire their boobs,” Mineta says as if he seriously believes what he just said.
Yaoyorozu decides that she also wants to say something, she takes a deep breath “Mineta, you don’t admire it you have an obsession and with you in this class, I don't feel safe. All the girls are nodding in agreement.
“At least I am nor-mal, unlike Kirishima and Bakugou!” Mineral spat out.
The class was shocked for a second, they knew Mineta was bad. But not that bad. Years could have passed until Bakugou broke the silence.
“Listen up you grape shit, you can hurt my shit with everything you got I don’t care. But if you say anything to Kirishima ever again, I swear to fucking god that I will torture you to death. Is that clear?” Bakugou says calmly but oh so threateningly.
Mineta could only blink, he swallowed before he let out a whisper “yes, I understand”
Aizawa walks into the classroom, Mineta grab your stuff and go, make sure you don't leave any stuff behind because you won't return to the hero course.
Mineta went immediately in the defense mode “Sir, I didn’t almost fail my exams like Kaminari so why am I being kicked out.”
Kaminari went quiet, which says a lot because Kaminari is never quiet. In his mind, he went back to last year and how hard he had learned for his finals. He couldn’t help it that he had ADHD and couldn’t focus on what he needed to do. Hell, he even tried taking his meds, and still, he almost failed.
Kaminari snaps back in reality and he listens to the conversation.
Aizawa continues “Yes Kaminari almost failed his finals, but he didn’t. But you Mineta, you have harassed the girls, and don't think I didn't hear you just a few minutes ago talking to Kirishima that way.” By the time Aizawa finished he is furious.
Mineta is stupid or has a death wish or maybe even both because he doesn’t leave, he continues to argue “I am a man and an upcoming hero, I have every right to claim a girl. Also, what Kirishima and Bakugou have isn’t natural and a real issue, you should suspend them for that, not me.”
Aizawa is far from calm and he seriously is considering killing this kid, but prison isn’t worth it. “You can’t claim a girl without her consent if you don't even understand that you can’t become a proper hero.” At this point, Aizawa’s eyes are full of rage. “And if you are talking about those boys being gay, I am married to Present Mic. So, I guess you don’t want a teacher who is gay.”
Mineta was too stunned to speak. He only looks at Aizawa with disgust in his eyes. Mineta grabs his stuff and starts to walk to the door.
“Mineta ask Shinsou to come in when you leave.”
“So, they let a brainwasher into the hero course but decide to kick ME out. You brainwashed Aizawa didn’t you, once a villain always a villain.”
Shinsou stared at Mineta, he knows that people hate him for his quirk, he knows that people think he is a villain. But how dare this fucker think that he brainwashed his father. He thought for a second about what Hizashi said about don’t kick him, but it would be so worth it.
So… Shinsou kicks Mineta. He flies through the hallway like a ragdoll and yes, it was so worth it, 100%.
Aizawa opens the door and he sees Shinsou kicking Mineta, not hard just enough to make it hurt.
“Shinsou, you know that I have to give you detention now.”
“I know and I regret nothing.”
Aizawa signs and walks to his desk “This is Shinsou, some of you know him already. Long story short, Shinsou joins the hero course, any objections?”
Shinsou was sweating a bit, he brainwashed some of these kids and he is sure they wouldn’t want him to join this class. He is even the reason Mineta isn’t in this class anymore.
Shinsou realized he wasn’t listening to Aizawa but he heard that he was supposed to sit down. So he quickly sits down behind Midoriya.
Aizawa begins to tell them what they were supposed to do today. “Today I will let you catch up with each other, this will be an exception because Shinsou joined the class. Please be quiet because I want to take a nap”
Shinsou suddenly feels that all eyes are on him, seriously 38 eyes were looking at him. He wishes that he was born with Hagakures quirk, being invisible would be so easy right now.
“So, why didn’t Aizawa tell us that he would place another hot person in our class,” Kaminari says while looking Shinsou right in the eyes. Shinsou feels his face getting hotter and he wishes that Kaminari couldn’t see it, but Kaminari saw it just like the rest of class 2-A.
“Denks what did I say about flirting with everyone you see?” Jirou says while she tries not to burst out in laughter. Kaminari whines and started to blush “Sorry Shinsou, if you don’t want me to flirt with you just say so" Kaminari decides that it was a good idea to finish that sentence with his famous finger guns.
“I don’t mind if a cute boy flirts with me.” He simply says back and gives him a wink. Shinsou thought to himself ‘what has happened to me, I don’t want to make friends. I am here to become a hero'.
“Sorry that I stole a place from one of your classmates, you probably hate me for it and I don’t mind if you hate me because I am not here to make friends.” It was quiet for a couple of seconds...
Mina and Sero are the ones that break the silence by laughing so hard that Aizawa woke up, scolds them, and went back to sleep. “You’ve got to be kidding me, we are so happy that that grape shit is gone," Mina says still wheezing. The rest of the class laughs in agreement.
Bakugou snorts “Mindfuck, you can’t escape the cruel destiny of friendship in this class" which the whole class agrees to, even Todoroki says “their friendship is like the plague, you can’t escape it anymore"
“So, I claim him into the Bakusquad then, dips," Kaminari says while practically begging the rest of the class for it. Midoriya whines “I wanted him in my squad not fair"
Mina began to bounce and smile so wide it must have hurt “Okay, you are our now, Goodluck!”
Shinsou is confused, why do I need to be in their squad, can’t I just go through this alone. He must have said that out loud because Kirishima responds with “not a change your ours now"
As they walk to the cafeteria Shinsou decides to ask a question“So... is there a reason you guys say Mina instead of Ashido?”
Mina didn’t expect that question but she just happily responded with “ Well, I like that name more than Ashido, and most of the time we use surnames for one another. Can we call you Hitoshi or are you not okay with that because we still use Bakugou for well Bakugou. Sometimes Denki decides that he will risk his life again by using Kachan.”
“Uh yea uh, you can use Hitoshi but only my fathers and sister have ever called me that so, it will take time for me to get used to it you know,” Shinsou says while deciding that he probably should give up on his hopes to do things alone.
Kaminari smiles and continues the conversation “Okay so if you are comfortable with it, I go by Denki. Sero doesn’t care so we still use Sero most of the time, because it is easier to remember. Mina already told you hers. Bakugou only lets Kirishima call him Katsuki and he wants to be the only person who calls Kiri Eijiro so we mostly use Kiri.”
“Dunce face that’s not true,” Bakugou says slightly irritated.
“yeah but we have seen your stares dude, I want to live past high school you know,” Kaminari says half-joking half-serious.
Bakugou let out a quiet “whatever” and takes a seat.
It was only now that Shinsou notices that Bakugou and Kirishima haven’t let go of each other’s hands. Not only Shinsou notices that...
“Well well well, if that isn’t class 2-A! Ha you guys trying to date or something, I thought class 2-A knew better than date the same gender. So class B is better at something because we aren’t gay!
Kaminari wants to punch that bastard but he can’t do that so he decides that he want to participate in the Monoma slander “Excuse me, you little bitch. How DARE you say anything to my friends, so get your homophobic ass right back here and apologize”
Kirishima gazes at Denki, ‘why is he so offended, he knows we can handle the shit-talking, he doesn’t have to help them’ he thought.
Monoma grinned “and what if I don’t”
If looks could kill he was dead, twice, because both Bakugou and Kaminari were furious.
Bakugous eyes pierced right into Monomas soul “Than I will make you wish you were never born”
Monoma takes this as a challenge “so what, bet a gay can’t take a good fight”
And that is Kaminaris queue he grabs Monomas shoulders and kicks him in the balls. Monoma falls on the ground whining in pain as Kaminari says “Didn’t expect that, did you?”
Monoma is in too much pain to answer Kaminari he could only let a whine out. Which only made Kaminari smile grow.
Kaminari had his little victory until...
“Kaminari, you have detention” Aizawa spoke.
Well crap
The day was over and everyone heads back to the dorms, except Shinsou and Kaminari because they had detention.
“I will leave you here, I will come back in an hour and then I expect that this classroom is dust-free.”
Both boys are nodding.
“and Kaminari”
“Yes, Sensei?”
“Don’t start another fire will you.”
“Can’t promise but will try”
Aizawa leaves the room
Shinsou is very confused what does he mean with ANOTHER fire, please let that be a joke
“Nope wasn’t a joke, Mina and I were wondering what would happen if we electrocuted her acid. We found out that it was highly flammable.” Kaminari says very seriously. Shinsou hoped he would make it out alive. What could happen in an hour?
Kaminari is easily bored, probably because of his ADHD. So, he decides that he is going to flirt with Shinsou. Is that a good plan, probably not, is he going to do it anyway, hell yes
“So, do you come here often?” great Denki now you have made a fool of yourself... congratulations, number 19 to think that you are an absolute idiot.
“If you mean detention, no this is my first time. So I am pretty sure my fathers will get mad at me” Shinsou says not thinking it was Denki who was flirting but just asking a question.
“Earlier you also said fathers, do you have 2, or is your mom divorced or something.”
Shinsou didn’t know what to say, he hoped he would avoid the theme of him being adopted. “Well, uhm I am adopted but I don’t want to talk about it.” And that was the truth, he doesn’t want to talk about it.
“That’s pretty epic, do you have siblings because I have 3 sisters and another on the way!”
There are 4 Kaminaris please let this be a joke, how can there be more of this one. “well I have a sister, she got adopted last year just a couple of months after me.” Seriously how can there be more of this, he doesn’t complain because Denki is hot but still?
Kaminari thinks it’s time for another pick-up line “So, everyone in our friend group is hot, so you fit right in” he says while giving Shinsou his finger guns.
“I don’t personally think of myself as hot, but if I can still be in the friend group I would appreciate that”
Kaminari couldn’t believe his ears, why did his friend, ‘can I call him friend, I think so I claimed him so I can’ thinks he is not hot. “Dude, okay you are hot, I know a hot purple when I see one.”
“Kaminari, stop flirting with Shinsou,” Aizawa says.
Shinsou likely begins to panic, why did Denki flirt with him, did dad see the situation wrong. No kaminari flirts with everyone, it’s okay.
“Can’t promise that either!”
Aizawa signed and hoped that his son wouldn’t make the same “mistake” as he did.
“you can go to the dorms, Shinsou probably needs to unpack some stuff”
“Thanks, Aizawa,” both boys say.
On the way to the dorms they bump into some kids from class 2C, Shinsou wants to take a detour but Kaminari doesn’t want to.
“So, the villain got into the hero course, Kaminari I should be careful this boy is a villain”
“Please, don’t say that about Hitoshi. He is a great guy for so far I know, and his quirk is pretty cool too, like who doesn’t want brainwash, it’s epic” Kaminari says while giving the boys tumps up.
“OH right, you are the dumb one of your class aren’t you, that explains why you don’t think he is a villain, well fear not we are here to tell you”
Shinsou whispers to Kaminari if they just could ignore them and go on. Kaminari agreed so they walk away.
“Poor kid, already brainwashed... well not that he has much brain”
Now Shinsou was pissed, he doesn’t know why because he knows Kaminari for a day but he liked the boy and wants to be his friend “Yo, if you want me to be the villain, I can be the villain so piss off”
The boy looks Shinsou in the eyes and he knows that Shinsou isn’t lying, so he quickly runs away.
“Thanks, Hitoshi”
“No problem, nobody is allowed to speak badly about other people, well maybe Bakugou because we’re all scared of him.”
“Couldn’t agree more”
The boys arrive at the dorms both have said no word after the whole class C drama.
Kaminari breaks the ice “You need help unpacking, I have nothing better to do than homework anyways and it’s the least I can do after you helped me out there”
Shinsou wants to be alone, but for some reason, class 2-A is welcoming and he wants to spend time with them so he says “sure”
‘Why did I agree, the whole Bakusquad is in my room right now and I want some peace’ Shinsou thought to himself.
Sero is a bit confused “Bro where is all your stuff, you know that everyone wants to see your dorm after you finish decorating it”
“That was all my stuff” well yeah most of it, he hid a bag with family photos under his bed because he promised dad that he wouldn’t tell them.
“well, we can work with what we got right?” Sero asks Mina and Denki
“yeah definitely,” both say in agreement.
They start to unpack Shinsous stuff and for some reason, after a couple of minutes, Mina found his bag, opened his bag, and saw what was inside.
“Shinsou, why are you in a picture with Eri?” Mina asks very confusedly
“Mina can you please put that bag away, it is private please,” Shinsou begs the girl to put his stuff away.
“Na-ah I need to know Shinbro”
‘Since when did she call me Shinbro, not important I need to secure the photos.’
“Mina, Sero please step away from my bag please” shinsou begs again.
Bakugou mingled in the conversation “Okay what do you have to hide Mindfuck, raccoon eyes give me the bag”
“Katsuki are you sure, he really doesn’t want you to go trough his stuff”
“Yeah Kirishima is right, he probably has a good reason for it”
Denki and Kirishima tried hard to help Shinsou, but they had to give up, Bakugou is a really good cook so the treat that they had to cook for themselves let them loose.
“Sorry Hitoshi, I tried”
“Sorry Shinsou, I want my cuddles tonight”
Mina opens the bag and the family pictures fell out of it, just like some other stuff he wanted to keep private, like his eraserhead figurine.
“Shinsou, you mentioned fathers earlier didn’t you?” Mina began.
“OH my gosh, you are adopted by Aizawa and present mic aren’t you?!”
Well so long for that secret, hope dad doesn’t kill me.
